Objectives and activities for the public benefit
Vision
Our vision is to see the young people we assist reach their full potential. We aim to empower and inspire young people creating productive citizens and agents of social change in the process as today’s young people face a multitude of challenges - not all of which are of their own making.
The New Era Foundation has been established to tackle three key social problems:
-
⚫ Youth unemployment;
-
⚫ Lack of safe spaces and activities
-
⚫ Lack of activities to develop emotional intelligence.
Objectives
The objectives of the charity, as defined by its Articles of Association, are for the public benefit to:
-
⚫ provide community participation in healthy recreation by providing facilities for playing sports (“facilities means land, buildings equipment, organisation of sporting activities);
-
⚫ relieve unemployment in such ways as may be thought fit, including assistance to find employment;
-
⚫ advance education;
-
⚫ promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society;
⚫ educate and assist young people through their leisure time activities so as to develop their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual capacities that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society and that their conditions of life may be improved; and
- ⚫ advance all other purposes which are charitable under the laws of England and Wales.
Public benefit
The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.

Principal activities of the charity
DIVERT
DIVERT is an established programme created in conjunction with the Metropolitan Police Service and delivered by the New Era Foundation in police custody suites. DIVERT addresses the gap in statutory provision for young adults. Each site has trained Custody Intervention Coaches, many of which are seconded from respective Community Club Organisations. These DIVERT Customer Intervention Coaches explain the numerous paths that the individual can be referred to and follow this with a long-term development plan to assist them in fulfilling their own goals, relating to education, training and employment.
A key feature of this initiative is the remarkable reduction in the re-offending rate of the participants.
KEY SKILLS FOR LIFE
New Era has developed 10 interactive training modules called “Key Skills for Life”. The modules will be part of an e-learning platform designed to support people with their thinking skills and making positive behavioural change. Topics will include, consequential thinking, self-sabotage and dealing with failure. The modules will have a generic feel and will appeal to a wide audience as well as benefiting DIVERT young adults.
Achievements and performance
DIVERT
During the year to March 2022 (which coincides with the funding periods), DIVERT interacted with 1043 individuals, of which 180 were diverted into Education, Training and Development, and 24 young people have secured permanent employment. As a guide to the impact, In the quarter to June 2022, the number of interactions increased to over 404, with 36 into training and development and a further 10 into permanent employment.
DIVERT was currently fully funded to June 2022, which coincides with our funders financial periods including the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime’s (MOPAC) annual review. In June 2022, the Bounce Back Foundation took the decision to bring the DIVERT programme in-house in order to maximise resources and collaboration across its programmes.
PRE-EMPLOYMENT COURSES
We have designed 5-day pre-employment programme to support the young person move closer to employment and overcome the particular barriers they are facing.
Each course module is designed to equip each young person with a set of core employment skills including customer services, time management, teamwork, problem solving, health and safety and communications. Participant will achieve between Level 1 and Level 3 employment skills.

New Era Foundation Ltd.
Trustees' Report for the year ended 30 June 2022
These courses aimed at developing the skills necessary for our clients to get ‘work-ready’ and into paid employment. 209 DIVERT clients completed this course since the programme began and more courses are planned into the new year.
We have seen the biggest change in the 43 (approx) clients who have gained employment or apprenticeships or education as they are now supporting themselves , have somewhere to live , caring for their children and trying to gain respect from a society that made the feel unwanted as well as helping others, are ambassadors for DIVERT, managing mental health issues while holding down work or training.
Funding
During this period, New Era continued to receive support from existing funders.
Most of the funding has once again come from the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime via the Bounce Back Foundation.
The Department of Work & Pensions has provided a grant which ran until early 2022. This, in conjunction with funding from the Wembley Stadium National Trust, has allowed the expansion of the programme into Wembley custody suite and North West London.
In addition to London, New Era has continued its offering via their respective Violence Reduction Units (VRU’s) into Lancashire and Thames Valley Police.
Finally, New Era was grateful to be the beneficiary of grants from BBC Children in Need.
Football Community Club Organisations
To allow New Era to deliver the DIVERT Programme, the charity works with Football Community Club Organisations. These organisations train their representatives as Custody Intervention Coaches and enable the expansion of the project. These organisations include: Millwall Community Trust, Palace for Life Foundation, Queen Park Rangers in the Community Trust, Tottenham Hotspur Foundation, West Ham United Foundation, Accrington Stanley Community Trust, AFC Fylde Community Trust, Blackburn Rovers FC Community Trust, Blackpool FC Community Trust, Burnley FC Community Trust, Fleetwood Town Community Trust, MK Dons Sport and Education Trust, Morecambe FC Community Sports, Oxford United in the Community, Preston North End Community Trust, Reading FC Community Trust and Wycombe Wanderers Sport & Education Trust.

b) Public benefit entity
The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

The Trustees have identified that, due the current economic climate and funding uncertainty, the charity is not a going concern and have made a decision to wind up the charity by June 2023 once all the projects have been completed.
The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.
d) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

m) Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
